Today I updated the PAY token on Hive-Engine. This is what I did:

  • Increased PAY token's precision from 4 to 8. Now, instead of the smallest amount possible for the PAY token being 0.0001, it is now 0.00000001.

  • Spent 1000 BEE to switch the PAY token from the scotbot contract to the SMT contract for the reward pool.

  • Transferred ownership of the PAY token from politicalhive@politicalhive to token.fee@token.fee.

  • Throttled down PAY token's emission rate so that now only 5,760 PAY tokens are minted every day.

  • Changed the indexing tags for the reward pool (see below).

My next plans are to create diesel pools for SWAP.HIVE:PAY and SWAP.HBD:PAY. That's at least several months away.

PAY token used to be the community token for c/politics. #politics is still a tag for the PAY token now that it is using the SMT contract. I created PAY back on the STEEM blockchain before the 2020 hardfork and had it ported over to Hive-Engine. I intend to eventually use the PAY token as the main token for my future Hive projects. Since I needed to use a community tag as one of the five tags, I picked my ChatGPT Enthusiasts community as the community tag along with #chatgpt. I have no intention of starting a ChatGPT or AI tribe, but I figured that sooner or later some token would reward posts about ChatGPT, so it might as well be the PAY token.

The new tags for the PAY token are:

#hive-109953
#chatgpt
#hive
#blog
#politics

I've created several tokens, and PAY is unfortunately the one I've been neglecting for several years. Today's update is the beginning of rehabilitating the token.
